Chapter 242: The old cow eats young grass

After a long time, someone looked at the water stains on the floor and said gloomily: “You will clean up yourself later, don’t ask Qiaoxi and such to come.”

Someone would pick the stars and moon by climbing the ladders for her. Let alone just getting hot bath water.

“I will clean up.” Xia Chunyu wrapped her in his robes and carried her back to the bed.

“Help me get my clothes.” Ye Jiayao requested in bed.

“why do you still need clothes, you can just sleep like this. You don’t even need to take off them. Less troublesome!” Xia Chunyu smiled.

Ye Jiayao stared at him, are you still not satisfied?

Xia Chunyu said quickly: “I will get it.”

He handed her a deep purple apron, a lavender dress: “Is this set good?”

Ye Jiayao squinted her chin and asked him to put it down, then her eyes turned to the net room and requested him to clean up.

Xia Chunyu smiled and said in a funny way: “The lady has an order, and I dare not to disobey?”

He just went to clean obediently.

Ye Jiayao was teased by him. She quickly put on her clothes. But her hair was still not dry, it was so sticky and uncomfortable. Then she got out of bed and took a dry towel to wipe it.

Ye Jiayao saw Chunyu’s wallet and walked over and opened and saw that there was no copper coin inside.

He paid the shopping during the day. She remembered that there were still more than two hundred silvers.

Oh! It must be Chunli who took it away.

Ye Jiayao thought for a moment, then she took two silver tickets from her money bag and stuffed it into his wallet, and then threw a few pieces of broken silver into it.

First, a man could not have no money, especially a man with his statu. Second, it was to warn him that she knows about everything.

Fortunately, this time the amount was not that much, she would not pursue it. She wished that he could understand her.

Early next morning, Chunyu went to the palace, and Ye Jiayao also needed to go out to send Ruan. There was barely a chance for them to meet later.

To the gate of the palace, Ye Jiayao had to get off the carriage, and Ruan took her arm. And asked sadly: “Sister Yaoyao, will you come to see me in the palace?”

Ye Jiayao couldn’t bear to say no, so she said, “I will come.”

Occasionally, there should be no problem! But she wanted to avoid these people.

Ruan eagerly said: “Remember what you said! If you don’t come, I don’t even have a companion.”

Ye Jiayao nodded solemnly: “I must come.”

Watching the carriage enter the palace gate, Ye Jiaoyao felt like a free-flying bird out of cage. Ye Jiayao’s heart was a bit painful. But she turned around and went back to her own carriage.

In the afternoon, Zhongyuan and Jinyao came back and brought a gift to the Madam. Ye Jiayao took them both to great peace to You.

You said a few polite words, and asked about Zhongyuan’s study, and they both stayed for dinner at night.

After seeing You, Zhongyuan went to Chunguo’s place, and Jinyao returned to the room to rest, Ye Jiayao was asked to stay by You.

“Yesterday, you gave a gift to Old lord, Lord liked it, but don’t waste too much money in future.” You said.

“Mother, I didn’t spend much money, just a little bit. Didn’t I have a reward yesterday? Everyone is happy.” Ye Jiayao smiled.

Yesterday, You thought that there were gifts for only two of them and mother Sun. It’s only known today that everyone in the house has been gifted. Even the housekeepers of the inner and outer courts had got a gift. saying that it was to celebrate Chunyu who win the dragon boat race. Everyone was happy. Although there were only two small piece of silvers which were not worth much. But this was in the name of Chunyu. In this way, You still agreed, and the second wife was so considerate at get along with people.

“You should still save. I heard that you still owe debts? You have to pay back a few thousands of silvers per month?” asked You.

Regarding the debts, Chunyu told her about it. He said that he invested in the border trade business, but no one told outside, how did You know?

Ye Jiayao nodded.

You said: “If you are tight with money, just tell me, I still have some here.”

Ye Jiayao said: “For the time being, we can still survive. The income from Heavenly Residence is still good. If we don’t have enough, I will ask mother for help.”

“As for your eldest brother, he is just the kind of person. In the past few years, Chunyu and Chunfeng have not asked me for money, but he has come up with a pile of broken stones at home and asked for money from time to time. In future, if he borrows money from you. Just ignore him. He has a lot of money and a business. I gave him a lot, and I don’t want to spoil him.” You said.

Ye Jiayao wondered, if You knew that big brother came to borrow money yesterday? It must be told by Chunfeng.

Ye Jiayao smiled slightly: “If big brother really has an urgency, it is also appropriate to help between the brothers.”

“What does he need urgently, eager to buy stones.” You sneered.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said: “Mother’s words, the daughter-in-law remembered.”

You smiled and said: “A while ago, I met Mrs. Su, and Mrs. Su said that Minister Su had read the article of Zhong Yuan. He greatly appreciated it. I am very optimistic about Zhong Yuan and said that this child will have a good future. Rui is also good. I heard that Mr. Guozi’s evaluation of him is also very high. In the future, you will have more snacks for them. In a few days, Miss Su’s four will be married, and you will go to Hexi with me.

Ye Jiayao always knew that Zhongyuan was good, but he could get such a high evaluation of Su Xiang, or let her have some accidents. Is Yishi suggesting that she and the Su family are walking around?

Ye Jiayao went back to her own yard after saying goodbye to You. Peach and such surrounded Jinyao and talked about Dragon Boat match yesterday and Peach spoke as if she was there.

Jinyao listened and her eyes sparkled and she looked excited.

Peach stopped as she saw the second young lady coming and she came to serve her. Ye Jiayao smiled: “You can keep going and practicing your conversation skill and maybe you can become a storyteller in future.”

Peach said innocently: “Second young lady. I was telling the truth as Song Qi told me about it.”

So Song Qi now has a student now!

Qiao Xi smiled: “Peach talked about this thing a whole night last night.

“Qiao Xi sister, you are exaggerating.” Peach raised her lips high.

Ye Jiayao tried not to laugh and went back to her room and Jinyao also followed.

“Big sister, Dad told me to tell you that the river embankment has been rebuilt in your name, so that you can rest assured.”

Ye Jiayao took a touch of sneer at the lips and let her rest assured that she was too lazy to pay attention to his broken things. She said that she had bought her face. Who cares, as long as he is not afraid of being in prison.

“Are grandpa and grandma well?” Ye Jiayao asked.

“Not bad, they wanted to come to Jinling but dad stopped them.” Jingyao said.

Ha, still wanted to come? They must’ve been free! Didn’t they say her unfilial? They would be mad if they come?

Ye Jiayao didn’t like her grandparents and didn’t welcome them.

“Big sister, there is something I don’t know if I should say it.”
